Good Morning or Should I say Evening,

I am happy to report that the swelling in my ankles went down so I am able to put on my shoes! For all you ladies I will admit that I forgot to bring a slip. Thankfully, the black skirt I borrowed from Stacie is lined so I'll be okay until I can purchase one. Otherwise, I don't think we forgot anything else. I have been busy putting together care-packages for Che, the social worker here, Chosen Children Foundation, and Lydia, Ricky's foster mother. How do you thank someone for caring for your son for eight months? I really can't and trust that God will bless her for all she has done.

We are about to go down for breakfast and though I'm hungry, I don't know if I will be able to eat. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. The next time we report we will have Ricky!

Austin and Madison, thanks for the updates and keep them coming. Just pretend we are your My Space friends.

John, just wanted to let you know that the pillows and flight schedule were huge helps!

Stephen, how do you fly so long?

Mrs. Margaret, update me on Coacoa and Mr. Walter's cold. Also, how did your appointment go?

Somebody let me know that Jen arrived home safely when she does!

Mom and Dad, thanks for holding down the fort and keep the messages coming.

Stacie, tell Boo that I am hanging in there and not as tired as I thought I would be, yet.

Full of nervous energy and loving every minute of it,
Stephanie
